Pregnancy Update

Finally I know!! This poor baby girl has no photos of my growing belly or info about how the pregnancy is going. Which I'm sure she really cares about! :)

Well... we found out that Baby #3 is a GIRL back in January! Sorry it took me so long to announce it but I'm pretty sure everyone already knew that from Facebook. Here are some cute pics of our little baby girl!




This is her yawning. She is such a wiggly little thing! She wouldn't stop moving during the ultrasound and between her moving and the ultrasound tech pushing all over my belly I was sore after the ultrasound. 

Just some random facts about this pregnancy that I don't want to forget 
  • I don't have the dark line on my belly. It's weird not having one. I had a really big dark one with the twins. 
  • I felt her first move at 16 weeks and Cody first could feel her kicks at about 20 weeks. 
  •  I crave junk food. Anything and everything salty, crunchy, sweet, and fattening.
  • I've been able to exercise this pregnancy and it feels so weird that I'm not stuck to a couch. 
  • I've had crazy pressure and pain since 20 weeks in my pelvic bones. She is sitting really really low and I can definitely feel it.
  • I guess I need to do more kegal exercises cause when I sneeze oh man... TMI I'm sure. 
  • I have the worst sciatic nerve pain. I will get up from sitting and I'll practically fall to the ground cause my right leg doesn't work.
  • I love apples and pears and strawberries right now. Pretty much fruit. Veggies aren't really cutting it for me this pregnancy. I want everything to be sweet and more sweet.
  • I'm hungry all the time. I dream about food and I think about food all day long. It's craziness!! It's worse when I exercise so I wonder why even exercise if it makes me eat more. Hmmm 
  • I have had a cold this whole pregnancy. Not a horrible one just runny nose and congestion sometimes.
 And here you go... the dreaded belly shot that I look so tired and chubby.

28 Weeks

The Nursery Board made by the amazing Annie Webb!!

My parents are coming down in a week and we are going to put up the board and batten. I'm so excited. Cause once that is up we can start decorating the nursery.

We have a couple names picked out but will wait to name her until we meet her which is scheduled for May 24th!!! Thank goodness for my OB inducing me at 39 weeks! Awesomeness!

You look great Amanda! SO cute! I love the nursery board. Can't wait to see it all put together. I have been dreaming of a similar idea with the board and batten but not using the exact stuff. We will see if I actually get to it. Good luck with everything. She will be here before you know it and as cute as can be!

We're doing board and batten wainscoting in our dining room! I really love it for a nursery, though! And don't worry about your belly pic. No one likes how they look when they're pregnant, vanity sort of just has to go out the window, but you seriously look awesome. It's funny all the changes that happen to your body (all over) during nine months' time, isn't it? But really, you look fantastic, and if I just saw this picture I would never guess that you are already 28 weeks. Beautiful as always!
